013:023 One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?"
He said to them,
013:024 "Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you,
will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
013:025 When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut
the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at
the door, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us!' then he will answer
and tell you, 'I don't know you or where you come from.'
013:026 Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence,

013:028 There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you
see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom
of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.
013:029 They will come from the east, west, north, and south,
and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.

013:034 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones
those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather
your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood
under her wings, and you refused!
013:035 Behold, your house is left to you desolate. I tell you,
